    Very cool trailer. I didn't care for the cheesy mother nature voice, though.

    Nice trailer. I see they are looking to cash in with the sci-fi stuff. Have they always been teamed with Gary Levox?

    Agreed.

    And I belive Levox has been filming w/Drury Outdoors for a few years now.

    I've seen episodes where he's been hunting their Iowa property.

    Hmmm... This reminds me of the Nascar shake up a few years back. The whole Drury / UA thing is mind boggling to me. Doesn't seem that would be a good fit for UA. Not that I have anything bad to say about them. So you kind of know where I am going I would think UA would be looking for more of a Nike type poster child. :)

    You don't replace a hot rod with a classic car. You buy another hot rod. :)

    You mean like Tom Brady or Lindsay Vonn? They are under armour poster children.

    When is the last time you have seen a outdoor sponsor advertise on a eco friendly car that gets 40+ MPG. NEVER. :p They all advertise on the biggest badest gas guzzling machines.

    Just for the record. I would buy more UA Hunting gear if Lindsay Vonn was their poster child for it. LMAO!

    Looks interesting. Not my favorite editing style, but always liked the Drury's. Good for them.

    UA's presence in the hunting industry is a good thing IMO. Apparel has made some major improvements over the years since those bulky cotton jackets. Personally it's all a business decision and the Drury's picked up a nice sponsor

    Striking while the iron is hot with the monster success of Duck Dynasty, UA is clearly making a huge push in the industry.
    Successful businesses don't sit back and bask in past success, they go out and make more of it.

    *full disclosure - I rock a lot of UA gear, MOST of which I love. Some of it ended up just being a label.

    Scent Blocker has been on coast or idle for a while compared to UA, look at the top five gear thread and a lot of folks list UA in their top five compared to scent blocker.

    I have a couple pieces of clothing from each and the UA has left the biggest impression on me as far as quality. I've been seeing UA stuff everywhere while SB stuff seems like it's fading.

    I agree, I have owned both products and UA is probably my favorite. I have had some of their cold weather gear since my highschool football days 12 years ago and it still looks good. i just wish they could lower the prices just a bit so the average hunter could afford to wear it.

    As far as the signing the Drury's it's a smart move on the part of UA. If you need a new flagship prostaff why take a chance on an up and coming group as your main team. Go out spend the money get an established brand like Drury with a proven track record.

    I recently purchased the UA Gunpowder jacket and pants. I wore them several times late season bow hunting and was pleasantly surprised with how warm they were. Don't know how the scent control will work out, but that could be said about any product. Good for the Drury's. They deserve it.
